Visted the doctor today for my check-up. He did the Strep B culture and checked my cervix and I’m not dilated yet. It was quite painful as I am swollen in that area from the pressue of the baby. She is still head down and is so low, the doctor said I probably won’t make it to my due date. I won’t be super early but early enough. I don’t mind that one bit other than the fact that Dad will be in a middle of a tournament. I gained 4 lbs (25lbs total) so that was a bit of a shocker. Blood pressure and urine is still good. I go back next Thursday for the start of my weekly visits.

Other great news is that my maternity leave starts next Thursday! BT has been consistantly getting hiccups in utero. At first it was cute and now it’s starting to drive me crazy. It’s seveal times a day and since she is so low, it’s not comfortable down there. She still moves a lot, much to her father’s delight. He was showing Aunt Renee today how to make her move (by pushing on the belly.)
